    Notre Dame Cathedral on Fire

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/live-updates-fire-at-notre-dame-cathedral-in-paris-173732973.html This is just insane and very sad. Hard to believe a structure that has been around for almost 700 years is all of a sudden nearly completely destroyed. Hopefully everyone is/stays safe, and they can...

    Pizza on the Traeger

    During winter since I couldn't go out and smoke, I decided to try and make some pizzas from scratch. I've been using Bobby Flays recipe for the dough, which I am starting to become a pro pizza tosser. I no longer need a rolling pin to stretch the dough. For the sauce I use San Marzano...

    First PP of 2019

    A couple days after doing my first fatty of 2019, did my first pork butt of 2019 and was by far the best pulled pork I've ever made. I used a combination of Jeff's rub and another rub called Sweet Sensation. Got it from a book I got for Christmas a while ago. I injected it with apple cider...

    Looking for parts for an old Griswold meat grinder

    One of my best friends was cleaning out his mom's house and found his father's old meat grinder and gave it to me. It had some rust on it so I gave it a good gentle cleaning. Since then I've used it a few times and works great! I was hoping anyone knew where I could find some parts for it as...

    Chorizo Fatty

    Its been a long time since I've posted so I figured I would come back in style! A good old fatty I did up a couple days ago! Stuffed it with chorizo sausage, jalapenos, onions, and pepperjack cheese. Smoked it on my new Traeger Tailgater at around 250 degrees for about 2 1/2 hours. Came out...

    My first Leg of Lamb (and Cornish Game Hen)

    I've started my first Leg of lamb and cornish game hen.  The hen I threw in a brine for about 2 hours, then I put on a herb rub on both.  Threw them on the smoker at 225F with apple chips and a little bit of hickory.  They've been cooking for about 2 1/2 hours now and the bird is at 144 and the...

    Fight for Air Climb

    For the second year, I participated in the Fight for Air Climb in Buffalo.  It was to raise money towards lung cancer.  Unfortunately, my grandmother died of lung cancer when I was only around 4, and I have only a couple memories of her, so I climbed in honor of her.  It was open to the public...
